Can I use a merlin telephone in my house with this?

I am not an expert. I tried to connect a cisco digital telephone to a comcast router and it did not work. This device will connect it to the network. You would need a router at least. One idea is to get a magic jack The merlin can connect to it - it works well too.

Yes, a phone "base" does need to be in the immediate proximity of the router. My cousin recommended the 'magicjack go" to me and he has the main base (plugged into the router through the magicjack) and 3 extension phones (paired to the base) in various rooms of his home and it works just fine for him. I hope this helps answer your question.

I had transfered my home # to my Magic Jack before I purchased the GVMate, however I set up the GVMate # to also ring my Magic Jack # Plus My Cell Phone # plus the land line # at My summer cabin. Have a land line here because I am out in the wilderness and cell service is about worthless. Bought the GVMate because Magic Jack will not make calls to Alaska, 907 area code and GVMate will. To make any long distance calls on the land line costs $0.20 a minute.

You can use as a free WiFi phone.Magicjack app(magicApp) is available at google play and gives you free calls to landlines and mobile numbers wherever you have WiFi. Many tablet/ipod touch owners are unaware they can use their device as a free WiFi phone.It works like a speaker phone and if you want a private conversation,just plug in earbuds/headphones as the mic will still pick up your voice.No special headset needed.

Your computer doesn't have to be on with the Magic Jack Plus. Ihavethe 2014 model. However, if you lose the connection to the internet the phone will not work.

Yes I just installed this system in my house, and I have magic jack. Works great. Very pleased with the system. When it goes off it takes about 10 seconds to call my cell phone.

Was wondering this same thing, found Net-Talk. Think I may try that and dump the magic-jack. Net-talk can work on both a router or a computer and seems to have the same features. Although I have a Magic-Jack I don't have to other yet so comparing the two should be interesting.

Yes. I use both MagicJack and Nettalk (VoIP's) with no problem. Have no land line. Connect a phone line first to the unit, then from the unit's ext. phone slot to your phone. Set up the '340 priority mode as to Telephone, Fax, Both, etc.

Yes. You can. Once you set up properly it just works like regular telephone. You won't be able to tell the difference.

This unit is a modem, router, and wifi hotspot. There are rs-232 jacks to plug in your magic jack or other internet based phones.

Hey Carla, I've got magicjack and I have to plug that into my modem too so I'm sure plugging the Panasonic into your modem would work fine because they both work off the same kind of phone wire, no difference.

My understanding, no. You choose your area code when you first sign up with Magic jack.

No you need internet. If your going to get one i would get a magic jack instead. Net talk has no support

I don't know, we do have a home phone system. Sorry I can't answer your question

It can be used for either one if you are using the correct digital modem. If the modem has a jack with the same standard line connector for a house phone, you are good to go, but the digital features will be limited as the phone was built for analog lines. Hope this helps!

Yes, the base station phone would connect with a wire to magic jack, although you could have remote cordless stations anywhere in the house. If you have two phones with different numbers, I believe you would need two magic jacks. Two phones with the same number. . .no.

You can use it with any phone service if you can get it to work. It would not reject the calls I put in the R list!
